Julian Assange Granted Asylum By Ecuador

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been granted asylum by Ecuador, the country decided today, meaning that the controversial figure will be permitted to remain in the Ecuadorian embassy in London “perhaps indefinitely.”

As CNN’s Atika Shubert reports, however, that “doesn’t explain how to get from the embassy to Ecuador,” because “if he steps outside of the door, he could face arrest by British police.”
